Presidential Election Discussion Set For Nov. 7

On the day after the race for the
White House is decided, Rutgers–Camden students will discuss and react to the 2012 election results during a special program open to the entire campus community.

Sponsored
by the Rutgers–Camden Department of Political Science, the students will
discuss a number of topics including how international and domestic policies
will be impacted by either the re-election of Barack Obama or the election of
Mitt Romney.

The discussion
will be led by Richard Harris, a professor
of political science, Wojtek Wolfe, an assistant professor of political
science, and Tim Knievel, a political science instructor.

The event offers
a unique opportunity to speak with college students, many of whom are voting
for the first time in this election, about the presidency.
